Subject: unixctl: Timeout unit tests instead of hanging.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f4ec6ff479ace8f9b893f883557235f2ea6bab8f;p=openvswitch

unixctl: Timeout unit tests instead of hanging.

We've seen some unixctl tests hang indefinitely which makes them
difficult to debug.  ovs-appctl and appctl.py calls to timeout
instead.
